Given the inequality:
$$- 7 x > -28$$
To solve this inequality, we must first solve the corresponding equation:
$$- 7 x = -28$$
Solve:
Given the linear equation:
-7*x = -28
Divide both parts of the equation by -7
x = -28 / (-7)
$$x_{1} = 4$$
$$x_{1} = 4$$
This roots
$$x_{1} = 4$$
is the points with change the sign of the inequality expression.
First define with the sign to the leftmost point:
$$x_{0} < x_{1}$$
For example, let's take the point
$$x_{0} = x_{1} - \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$- \frac{1}{10} + 4$$
=
$$\frac{39}{10}$$
substitute to the expression
$$- 7 x > -28$$
$$- \frac{7 \cdot 39}{10} > -28$$
-273
----- > -28
10
the solution of our inequality is:
$$x < 4$$
